Josh Weiland - September 10, 2023

Setback or Set-Up?

We're back in the book of Acts after taking the summer off. After a review of where we've been, we pick things up at the end of Acts 15 (Acts 15:36-16:10). Paul and Barnabas make plans to go back and visit the churches they planted years prior on their first trip, but before they head out some conflict arises. Barnabas wants to bring Mark along again, but Paul isn't interested as Mark had deserted them on their first journey. As a result Barnabas and Paul part ways. Barnabas heads to Cyprus with Mark, and Paul heads west through modern-day Turkey with Silas. It seemed like a big setback for the growth of the early church, but God used it to set-up even greater expansion of the church. On the way Paul recruits Timothy and Luke to join him. God can turn every setback into a set-up as we surrender to his will.

Scripture References: Acts 15:36-41, Acts 16:1-10
